Looking Forward !

Â

Â Between Spring and FallÂ of 2012 we’ve traveled to schools such as the University of North Carolina at Wilmington, and Â North Carolina Central University. Â In the upcoming semester we are looking forward to traveling to schools such as the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, Fayetteville State University, and the University of North Carolina at Pembroke.

“There is no hope of success for the person who does not have a central purpose , or definite goal, at which to aim. Ninety-eight out of every hundred of those whom I have analyzed had no such aim. Perhaps this was the major cause of their failure.”

OurÂ PUSH Campaign is off to a great start!!! Push stands for Pursue and Uplift Study Habits. The goal of the PUSH campaign is to get students motivated to do well academically. Each student is asked to contribute to the groups overall monthly goal to reach 125 studyÂ hours.Â So far we are already there and have exceeded our numbers. Thanks goes to our tutors Tim Lee and Stephen Phillips.Â I would also like to thank all of the 3M Support staff including new members Julia Holmes and Leigh Rice.

3M had the pleasure of joining forces with the Cape Fear Student Sociological Society Sunday in an effort to feed homeless citizens atÂ a well known local event calledÂ Early Bread.Â The eventÂ was held at Charismatic Episcopal Church this Sunday, November 20th from 6 to 9 AM.Â The churchÂ prepares breakfast and offers itÂ toÂ those in need at no cost simply as gesture ofÂ Christian love.Â Although this was my 4th time coming out to enjoy the comradery and share in the effort to assist citizens in need, many of the volunteers were here for the first time.

I would like to thank all who helped organize the event especially CFSSS, 3M members Olujimi Jumoke, and Isaac Ortega for all of their efforts.
